SUMMARY:

When this health insurance provider came to 5th Method, it was starting from square one. It had no collaboration solution, just a series of disparate databases and unreliable email communication practices.

5th Method came in and recommended a new SharePoint-based intranet. They devised an implementation and onboarding strategy, set up dev and production environments, launched the portal across 5 business groups, and trained the company on best practices. (The intranet has grown to serve more than a dozen business groups across the organization.)

Now the company has a one-stop solution for employee collaboration with built-in workflows that drive productivity and ease the frustrations of email and siloed information systems.
